Hikari's giggles slowly came to a halt, and she was thankful that Sakuya gave her even little breaks between the tickling. She could no longer think of a way to escape. Was her only way out to comply with Team Galaxy's request? She couldn't bring herself to spill the information, though Sakuya fully intended to tickle it out of her. Before she could wonder how long she had been tormented already, she felt her tormenters cruel fingernails gliding up and down from her thighs to her knees. She erupted in hysterics once more, her laughter like music to the ears. Seeking to determine where Hikari's most ticklish spot was for the most effective interrogation, she lingered on her captives thighs for about fifteen minutes before moving on.

Hikari's heart sank as she felt Sakuya undoing the straps on her ankles and began to slowly slide her boots off. She bit her lower lip, her body tensing, her toes curling beneath the light protection of her black knee high socks. Sakuya grinned. Her favorite spot to tickle! She left her ankles free for the moment - her knees were still strapped down, so she would only be able to wiggle her feet a little bit from side to side. Letting the anticipation hang in the air, she tickled her knees, but was unsatisfied with the giggles it produced. As she slid her nails over Hikari's shins and calves, she gasped, her toes spreading and her soft soles stretching out in an involuntary response.

"I think I've found your spot~" Sakuya sang happily as she placed her fingernails on Hikari's warm socked soles. Another worried gasp, her breath quivering just as much as her body. "Please, no..." she managed, before her laughter reached the beautiful height it had been at when Sakuya was tickling her hips. While she wiggled her feet from side to side to avoid the torment, she learned that Sakuya was very skilled at following the movements of her feet, never letting her fingernails leave their target. "Just let me know when you're ready to tell me that secret of yours..."

"I cahahahan't! Pleahehehese stahap! Not my feet!"
